Answer:

1,500 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that

$1\ ft= 12\ in$

Convert ft to in

$150\ ft=150*12=1,800\ in$

<em>Divide the length of a row by the space occupied by one person</em>

$1,800/24=75\ persons$

<em>Multiply by the number of rows to determine the total people that can fit into the stands</em>

$75(20)=1,500\ people$
